ChApter 1

Today my knight in shining armor drove me almost 5 hours from CedarCity to Provo. The roads were awful and I would have for sure died from a heart attack from fright if I would've attempted the trip on my own. People were literally getting sucked off the side of the freeway before our very eyes. Kyle is so BRAVE and he is my HERO. Thank you Kyle, love you FOREVER! The nature of my trip up here is to spend a week at the State Hospital to finish some clinical hours. Almost done with those - WAHOO! In my spare time at night, I will catch up on our latest where abouts...

First trip for all of us to Tai Pan Trading. All came home with great and spacious merchandise (and some that's unexplainable).

2,000 piece puzzle of the Stip in Vegas. It still remains unfinished.
Farckle... I have no idea what this game is all about... All I know is that you cannot be skilled at it - it's a game of chance, and that Kyle asked me to blow on his dice so they would roll the right numbers.

Welcoming in the New Year with glow sticks which were dwarfed by Kristen's neighbors display of big (and illegal) fireworks!

Glow in the dark braces - or something like that!


PS, this is a bad pic at a bad angle for what I wanted to show. But I wore a bright red rose in my hair which made me feel festive. I think I'll wear flowers more often! :)


New Year's resolutions include:

-Getting a job in Cedar City.
-Graduating and passing the RN state boards
-Paying attention to details (i.e., incorporating flowers into my wardrobe, keeping my toenails painted, dressing up more often for Kyle, keeping the house tidy, making time for personal scripture study, and enjoying all the little details in my life that really make it the blissful state that it is!).

Tune in tomorrow for Chapter 2 of our Week Away From HOme...
